What is the Prayer Shawl Ministry?

Congregant Delaine Collins started Unity of Mesa's Prayer Shawl Ministry in May 2006, based on the work of The Prayer Shawl Ministry started in Hartford, Connecticut in 1998.  Since then, the Prayer Shawl Ministry has met on a regular basis, with participants coming together much like at an old-fashioned quilting bee to knit and crochet shawls, blankets, and scarves for recipients.  A shawl maker begins each project with prayers and blessings for the recipient. The intentions are continued throughout the creation of the shawl. Upon completion, a final blessing is offered before the shawl is sent on its way. 

Whether you love to knit or want to learn, join us in our cause making items to donate to our congregation, organizations in our community, and our world.
